Studies estimating the total cost burden of DLBCL.

Study Location Intervention of interest Indication Mean total cost (2019 USD) Conclusion
Wang, et al. [33] United Kingdom Total treatment pathway DLBCL Per-patient: $31,499 Considerable variability with range $5,017 (palliative care alone) to $135,493 (patients receiving autologous HCT)
Morrison, et al. [34] USA Total treatment pathway DLBCL PPPM: $12,804 Significant cost burden, particularly in the first year after DLBCL diagnosis
Ren, et al. [35] USA Total treatment pathway DLBCL PPPM: $16,751 Considerable healthcare costs and resource utilization
Costa, et al. [36] Canada Total treatment pathway DLBCL Per-patient: first 6 months following diagnosis, $25,743; first 6 months following relapse, $16,337 Greatest cost observed in first 6 months after diagnosis or disease progression with significant drop in cost in subsequent time intervals
